REACTION to Justin Jefferson's $140M contract: 'A NO BRAINER!' - Mina Kimes | NFL Live 

7 games and they didn’t mention JJ has more rec. yards then any WR in NFL history through his first 4 years.

8 games

@@jermainelee1060 1 game missed by lamb 7 missed by jj equals 6 game difference lol

Best ABILITY is AVAILABILITY

@@Rivs5117 how smart do u feel for stating the obvious? Thats like saying the best human is a breathing human lmfao

And with back up QBs

And missed more games

LMAO thank you for noticing the facts lol

2 of the games he “played” he got hurt in and didn’t finish. Crazy good

🐐🐐🐐

Man was bout to get 2k last year

Had 1K with 3 nobodies and a Mormon throwing to him

It's around 10 or 11 million

Former Vikings offensive lineman Alex Boone once said on his podcast that agents get 1-2% of a players rookie deal. I believe he said that number will jump by a percent or 2 for a players first big contract.

What

I'm sure each agent is different, that being said. I heard somewhere it's somewhere around 10%. Roughly.

Played deals go up... so does agents. Percentage is bigger because of bigger deals.

Jesus.... can u imagine 😳.... I probably wouldnt spend a dime for a week just in shock

Let’s not forget that just about half of that goes straight to taxes(like 40mil) which is pretty insane!

my thoughts exactly, Ceedee will also get paid

Amon Ra can get out any time from 2026 if he wants. The Lions haven't really got him locked down.

Yeah he got ripped off. 35 million a year isn't nothing

Bro, the Vikings drafted him and have treated him well. He also wants to win, so yea, he didn't go for everything he could have.

I agree, only $8m cap it this year and $15m next year.

That’s nonsense. A created story. They were only moving up for a QB. Kwesi and KOC told the media. It makes no sense to take a gamble like that when you already have the best WR. They needed a QB and got one.

@@Noir-Tesseract they were trying to get Nabers on a rookie contract so they can use the money you need to keep Jefferson on other needed position .

Don’t sleep on JJ

@@ebrimajawara8191 JJettas is dope, I know he will do good. It's JJ McCarthy I am worried about. JJettas is going to end up being like D Adams on the raiders. Hella Talent, mid team, no QB. JJ isn't that great. He was hella over hyped

​@@chrismojica2470 I think that's why it's 4 years and not longer. If in 5 years (1 year left on his rookie deal) JJ pans out as a QB then they will both be eligible for an extension and they will know what they have money wise. If JJ doesn't pan out at the QB position, then Jets has an out if the Vikings look like they are gonna have to rebuild.

@@ebrimajawara8191 💯Lions Fan.

You def a casual

@@MichaelRucker-ns5po guilty as charged

They play in a very rough division. I think they'll be better than Chicago at least

@@JohnnyFarcry I def agree that division is gonna be hella competitive. Even as a Vikings fan myself I'd honestly say All of the teams in the NFC North Have objectively very good rosters. Minnesota won the division most recently prior to last season. And got hit with Injuries hard last year. They also had a lot of uncharacteristic turnovers. I truly believe they either Win it again this year or at least make the playoffs. Because the defense is gonna surprise a lot of people. Brian Flores has been an enormous addition

You have to spend in order to have quality players. Game changers and difference makers are worth it.

@@Mr.93.20 Not in this case.

Overspend? you are missing the whole point of what this type of talent does for a franchise and all the selling ques which he brings to the franchise lol

Overpaid for the best wr in the league ok buddy. Talk to me in 2 years when recievers are making 40m a year

@@brianbadonde9251 He's a rookie to the NFL lol

🐐🐐🐐

You’re kidding me, right?

@@PTS328 No. I'm tired of watching guys who haven't reached the highest of highs getting overpayed. $140 million comes with a Superbowl , MVP regular season, Superbowl MVP and a conference championship. Multiple. Money used to mean you earned your paycheck , they handing these checks out like tic-tacs , you get a $100 mill , they get a $100 mill and we wonder why a lot of guys end up flopping when they get paid like this.

Last year, his stats were primarily from Mullens, Dobbs, and Hall....

They also won 13 games 2 years ago when JJ had 1800 yards with a healthy Kirk, not really garbage time.

Question? So in the NFL the guaranteed $ doesnt count against the cap?

@@NAT-turners-Revenge it all depends on how you structure the contract year to year that determines how it hits the cap. So once his new contract kicks in he will get 88 million out of that 140 million off the jump in 2024. Then come 2025 where the Vikings will have even more cap space. Most of Justin's contract will already be paid out.
